Hello again, just an idea : I can find cheap "old SATA 3G" SSD disk + usb box. Should it be a good solution? For, say, 50 $, I can get 32 GB and those SSD seems much more reliable.
I'm interested in your opinions (and in answers to my first post!) thanks ahead -- Laurent Lesage Laurent Lesage a écrit : > Hello all, > > I don't know if it is the right place for this kind of questions - > please let me know. > > I'm using sheeva plugs as asterisk servers wit debian armel ports.
